Please, discuss your schools finest moments in a Championship game.
That is amazing!!!The 2014 Athens vs Toledo Central Championship game. 11 straight lead changes
Loved seeing it live. That was the game that influenced LCs' closing.2020 Division IV State Championship
Van Wert came back from 21-7 down against Mentor Lake Catholic to win 31-28. VW made a game winning FG with 9 seconds left to win a great game between two great teams in a rain storm.
Another amazing Champion.One of the most exciting comebacks ever, Mogadore over St. Henry in triple overtime. Mogadore trailed at one point 35-3. Won on a field goal 61-58....1996 state championship at Massillon Paul Brown Tiger Stadium. Seemed like the entire village was at the stadium that day. Never gave up, and the party went on all weekend!! What a ride home from Massillon that day!!
CHAMPIONS is what this thread is all about.Vikings4life.....Great thread. Love hearing about teams that know how to bring home a championship.
1996 was fascinating. Mogadore's comeback win on top of Lima Senior and Fostoria upset wins over St. Ignatius and Buchtel, respectivelyOne of the most exciting comebacks ever, Mogadore over St. Henry in triple overtime.

You have to enjoy reading about REAL CHAMPIONS.
That was a great team.The 1981 McKinley team. From how bad they looked in the 3 scrimmages to beating Moeller was incredible. And it was extremely cold that day! lol
I turned it off late in the 3rd. Ursuline will never get over that one.This past year when massie came back from 21 down to win the DIV state title. I don’t think many gave them a chance down 3 scores nearing the end of the 3rd qtr. especially being a running team.
That was one of the best and most enjoyable games I have ever watched. Awesome game.One of the most exciting comebacks ever, Mogadore over St. Henry in triple overtime.

That was 2009 and a painful memory as a Coffman fan. We were undefeated and beat the cats in the regular season. We had incredible talent. But in the playoffs the coaching disparity reared it’s head and Davidson beat us 22-7. A thorough whipping and I think the beginning of the end of any hopes that Coffman could ever compete at the state level under the current staff.I forget what year it was but Hillard Davidson beat Glenville. I think Davidson had the ball on about their own 30 with something like 2 min left on the clock and I thought no way Davidson can win this game because they only threw like 6 passes all year total and wouldn't you know they go 68 yards in one play to about the 2 yard line and take it in from there.
2009. Going in, I thought one of two things would happen. One, the talent disparity would show and Glenville would win easily. Two, if the Wildcats could be in range in the 4th quarter, they would find a way to get the job done. Fortunately it was the latter.I forget what year it was but Hillard Davidson beat Glenville. I think Davidson had the ball on about their own 30 with something like 2 min left on the clock and I thought no way Davidson can win this game because they only threw like 6 passes all year total and wouldn't you know they go 68 yards in one play to about the 2 yard line and take it in from there.
